"No problem." Strange checked it again, and quickly made a judgment, "It should be a spell designed to prevent the enemy from being traced back to the location through the owl, just leave it here, they will definitely come and take it away of."

"Is there anything I can do for you?" Petra asked.

"No." Strange replied without thinking, "Your Excellency can take care of the rest, you'd better go back and concentrate on your studies. Even if you want to be a superhero, you have to get a good diploma, right?"

Petra was a bit reluctant, but had to admit he had a point.She's not even a "hero", she's probably only a fledgling intern... just like the intern position she got at Stark Corporation.The adults may admit that she has good abilities, but placing her in this place is actually just letting her play around.

"I'll do my best." She puffed out her chest.

"Well, you still have to learn." The doctor replied lightly.

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked back. There was still someone waiting for him at the end of the corridor, probably a fellow mage. Petra took a look, but didn't recognize him.

"Oh, that's right." Strange stopped suddenly, stretched out his index finger and nodded at her chest, "On YouTube, one of your acts of bravery has become popular, if you really want to hide your identity... I suggest you go back and deal with it. Then, be a good neighbor in New York."

"Okay." She sighed. "So—I went back to school? Is it really all right?"

Petra confirmed again and again, and after getting the affirmation of the other party, she reluctantly left.

After the new year, the academic decathlon competition will start again, and the school team calls all members to join the training.

She really couldn't devote all her time to studying the topic of "how to become a full-fledged superhero".In addition, she also has band training, a stack of physics competition test papers, and the research and development department materials that Tony gave her, which seems to be for her to read within a week...

Headache!

"Petty, are you okay? You look tired."

Liz Allen, a grade above them.When the freshman who recruited Petra's class was first recruited, she took care of her. She was a pretty and responsible girl.

"Well...it's okay." Petrand quickly sat up straight, and put down the hand rubbing his forehead.

"I heard that you are busy with an internship recently." Liz looked at her with concern, "When I first saw you, I knew you would be very good. But you are only freshmen in high school now, so don't worry about it so much ... from Stark Industries? Their requirements are very strict?"

Petra nodded vaguely: "Maybe I'm too nervous, I always want to do more things."

"Too desperate." Liz shook her head amusedly, "Even if you skip a few visits, Mr. Stark won't fire you for that, right? Relax, do you want to go swimming with us this week? Just Oh, at my house—and Michelle, want to come?"

"I don't seem to have said that I'm going." Michelle sat across from him and said suddenly.

Liz raised her eyebrows: "Huh? You can't swim?"

Michelle: "Yes, but... I'm still losing weight. To make my bikini work."

"Want to wear a bikini?" Petra was startled.

Liz turned her eyes around her and sighed: "...you don't need it."

Michelle seems to be more curious about other gossip than going swimming with girls her age on weekends.

"I heard you just moved?" She asked Liz, "Manhattan villas are not cheap. We'll just go there, won't we disturb your family?"

Liz shrugged: "Only my mom is there. She has a club meeting, so she's not here on Saturdays. As for my dad—he's busy, and he's picked up a new movie and is running around the world."

"Wow." Several others were amazed in unison.

Only Michelle was not in the situation, blinked: "What?"

"You don't know? Didn't I tell you?" Petra scratched her cheek, "Liz's father is the one who played Batman! Super powerful!"

She always gets excited when it comes to Batman.

"Oh, don't mention that." Liz was a little embarrassed when she mentioned it, and waved her hand, "That was all a few years ago, and it's already out of date. If it wasn't for making a new work, I almost couldn't make ends meet , our family will have to sell the house to pay off the debts and have to live on the streets.”

"That's right, I like "Birdman" too!" Petra said happily, "MJ, didn't I still want to go to Broadway with you to watch it last time? It ended up being a Spanish exam..."

Michelle was still dazed.But she was thinking fast.

"Wait, isn't the actor you're talking about named Michael Oton? Liz's father, as I remember, is—"

Liz: "That's a stage name, honey."

Since she is going out to play on weekends, it means that Petra has to finish all her homework in advance.From this point of view, her burden has obviously increased again.

Language homework, done.Bioscience experiments, done.

There is also the nano-molecular material analysis report produced by Stark, which is still in the testing stage... Finally, it is done.

She let out a long breath, threw down the book, and stretched herself, feeling that she could hardly keep her eyes open.Aunt Mei's voice came from the living room, telling her that she made supper.

At this time, Petra misses Sol and his servant Jack very much. Well, the main thing I miss is Jack’s craftsmanship. Since the next door was vacated, there have been no new tenants to live in, but it is much cleaner. .

In fact, after eating the food made by Aunt Mei for so many years, in all fairness, it is not too bad to swallow, and I can gradually get used to it.You can't always expect a generous neighbor like Saul to appear, can you?What's more, in the future, she will always leave here and live alone.

Petra cheered up and touched her stomach, she was really hungry.She ate a lot at night, but she didn't expect to digest it so quickly. If she went to bed now, she could bear it for a while, but unfortunately, she still had an urgent task: the battle clothes needed to be improved.

She sighed, stood up resignedly, and walked out of the room.

"Mei, I think it would be better if you cook the quick-frozen dumplings yourself... eh?" Petra was stunned. "Mr. Stark?"

In the early hours of the morning, why did her immediate boss, the multi-millionaire Iron Man, appear in this dilapidated small apartment?

"Hey, good evening." Tony greeted nonchalantly, holding a scone in his hand, "Are you hungry, would you like a piece?"

Mei sat on the other side of the sofa and looked at her reproachfully: "Mr. Stark is coming, why didn't you say it earlier? It's so late, I can't entertain him properly."

"You're welcome, it's an honor to taste your craftsmanship." Tony replied politely.

Petra dared to conclude that it was the midnight snack that May was talking about.Thank goodness she gave up trying to make dumplings by herself, but unfortunately, she turned her attention to British food...  

"Thank you, I'm not hungry yet." Petra panicked, took a step back, and her brain was spinning rapidly.

Why is Tony here?Why at this time, in this capacity...Could it be that he has actually discovered his superhero game, discovered her footprints of intruding into the company's firewall, and then came to ask the crime?

She couldn't help but silently took a step back.

"I didn't say hello to you in advance, I took the liberty. I hope I didn't disturb your sleep." Tony smiled slightly, explaining his purpose, "Actually, I just wanted to come to find my employees... Donald Black, credit card Last records show he rented a room next door. He seems to have moved, though, doesn't he?"

Petra is still in a daze, and Tony winks at her.

"Oh, you mean Mr. Black next door?" May suddenly realized, "Yes, he just left a few days ago."

Petra turned to her again, eyes wide open as if to say, "His name is Blake?"

Mei successfully accepted the message: "You child, you have been pestering him for so long, and you still don't know his last name?"

"Uh, he didn't tell me..." Petra rubbed her nose.Out of the corner of her eye she saw Tony smiling with interest.

"Oh, it seems you know Donald very well? I didn't even know he liked children so much."

"It's familiar." Aunt Mei smiled casually, "Blake is a very nice person. I was a little worried when I saw him lose his job... I didn't expect him to be from your company? That's good. Well, let's chat first. with?"

She felt that Tony wanted to tell his niece something about the company, but she couldn't understand anyway, so she might as well go to the kitchen to clean up the tableware.

The kitchen and the living room are almost connected together, but when the faucet is turned on, Aunt May probably won't be able to hear what they are talking about.For the sake of caution, Petra still lowered her voice: "Sol left, didn't he tell you?"

"I thought you could tell that the Avengers are all... very willful guys," Tony pointed to himself and sighed, "I'm not saying that I can always maintain a mature side, but it is true that some People are much more self-willed than me. For example, Banner ran away from Sokovia a year ago and disappeared without a trace. Another example is Sol, he can fly wherever he wants, and he can’t find it without the Rainbow Bridge. to him."

"If Thor returns to God's Domain..."

"Then, he won't come back in a short time." Tony's expression gradually became serious, "I haven't heard from him, but since he is leaving, there must be a reason for him to leave. Maybe Asgard met When we are in trouble, it is impossible for him to solve everything for us on Earth, so it is better to go back to his old place and take care of the housework."

Petra nodded thoughtfully and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.Apparently, Tony hasn't discovered her spider abilities yet...

"That's right," Tony said suddenly, and she couldn't help breathing again.

"what?"

"It seems that the relationship between you and Saul is better than I imagined." Tony looked at Petra with a strange look, "Do you like him?"

"...Which aspect do you like?" Petra asked rationally with a ripple in her heart.

Tony was silent for a while, and said: "My personal advice, you still don't get too close to him. You look at Jane Foster, a lesson learned from the past. Miss Foster, what a fine astronomer, what a woman— — ended up breaking up with him.”

"Oh... eh?" She nodded blankly, "What do you mean?"

Sol told her to stay away from Tony, and Tony told her to keep her distance from Sol?Who should she listen to?

Wait, is that what she meant? ... Are they thinking too much, or are they thinking too simply?
